They didn't vote for trump

They voted for a republican, any republican. They voted for patriarchy, for racism, for nationalism.

They voted against socialism, against gays, against immigration.

They didn't vote for higher prices, but they got higher prices. They didnt vote for freedom, for rights and for equality.

Recession, inflation, healthcare…it just might be enough suffering to unite the majority of voters against the republicans, to a degree that even gerrymandering can’t prevent the blue tsunami.
